Updated 28/11/2011 Centrally
located three star superior hotels, residences and apartments in the
New
& Old Town:
HOTEL
ANNA (***L): A
welcoming family run hotel,
housed in a lovely turn of the century building with an Art Nouveau
original
decoration. The HOTEL ANNA stands
in a quiet street shadowed by old trees, in the fine Vinohrady
residential
area: only one metro station from the Many services are available: like pressing, exchange, tours and shows information, parking in front of the building. As car thieves brought to Prague quite a bad reputation, the hotel's management got the excellent idea to provide wheel lockers! Free of charge! For even more safety, there is a camera controlling both the entrance and the parking. Use of fax and Internet is available through the newly re-designed reception desk, next by the open fireplace which gives much charm to the lobby. The meeting room can host six people at ease. All the facilities that this fine three star hotel cannot offer directly are located nearby: gymnasium, fitness, sauna, solarium, tennis, minigolf, squash, and covered swimming pool can be reached by walking distance. Despite of the obvious upgrade of the hotel, the rates are more than ever among the astonishingly best value for money in town. A nice room costs approximately CZK 2,100 - 2,900 per night, in high season. Including a gourmand buffet breakfast, served in a vaulted cellar: the Czech way! There is a new cozy lounge for a coffee (complimentary!), a soft drink or a beer, by the reception. In spring and summer time you will certainly prefer the sunny terrace, quietly secluded behind this nice hotel. Free Wi-Fi! Major credit cards (American Express, EuroCard MasterCard, Visa) are accepted. Managed by "SMALL CHARMING HOTELS". A
fair
tourist and business budget hotel.
HOTEL
ANNA: Budecská 17 120 00, Praha 2
PERLA (***L): With a unique modern design and a strategic location, this still quite confidential address (the hotel opened in 2007) is building up a quick reputation among aware travellers.
Originality goes up to the unfailingly good taste 64 air-conditioned and soundproofed rooms, which we liked very much. Well exposed to the daylight, they all come warm and smart. With a Zen wallpaper, elegant parquet, aesthetic bathrooms, and smooth antiallergic beds, they have been tailored made for a total relaxation. Guests would hardly believe that they stay in a tourist packed area, with the Old Town Square, Venceslas Square and Charles Bridge a few steps away. Despite of its distinguished comfort, with safe, IDD phone, complimentary WiFi and Plasma Sat TV in the rooms, we surprisingly realized that the Perla wanted to play in the « low cost» category. We felt like -and actually were- in a four star hotel; selling itself like a three star. Room rate goes from approximately EUR 85 (Single Room / Low Season) till EUR 145 (Double Room / High Season). Budget oriented guests will like to hear that there is no minibar in the rooms, but discreetly disposed vending machines, filled with fine quality soft drinks, wine and snacks, sold out at common grocery retail price. Though this would be certainly more exciting to order -still at a very attractive price- from the very pleasant, funky Café Bar Perla (where the complimentary breakfast is served). The
wellness
facilities have been superbly designed. A low rate applies for using
the
sauna; while working out on the most modern « made in USA » equipment
is
free of charge. There is a wide range of services: featuring laundry,
dry
cleaning, ironing, room service, fax & photocopying, concert
and tours
ticket service, etc.
We
warmly
recommend this rare jewel, which already enjoys encouraging reviews in
Tripadvisor.
PERLA:
Perlova 1, 110 00 Prague 1
ATLANTIC
(***L): With
the historical city center (Municipal House, pedestrianized streets,
Old
Town and major museums) just round the corner, main railways stations
nearby
(Masarykovo Nadrazi is 300 meters away), and located
one step from any kind of public transportation Those on a budget, visiting the hotel for its low rates, will be happy to hear that they won't be increased. At least in the near future. A nice room at the Atlantic costs between CZK 2500 (single / low season) and CZK 3800 (double / high season). Breakfast, VAT and local tax included. Plenty of special offers all year long. The equipment of the rooms (all with shower and WC) exceeds what one could actually expect in a three star hotel: all the extra rooms are large enough to receive 1 or even 2 extra beds. Satellite TV, IDD telephone, hair dryer and minibar are provided. Last but not least, 3 rooms have been specially designed for disabled guests. Among a wide range of facilities, the Atlantic offers secured parking in the courtyard, laundry service, and safe-box at the reception desk. The considerate ladies concierge are efficient in booking last minutes seats for concerts or theatre, and will assist you in organizing city tours. There is also the pleasant and relaxing "Lobby Bar Havana" (with a fine selection of cigars freshly imported from Cuba, sold out at cost price!), a winter garden, a banqueting room and a conferencing room. The Restaurant Fiesta, the best self-service downtown, offers great value for money Czech and international specialities: this is the hangout of the white collars working in the neighbouring companies. Taxi service available. Squash and indoor swimming-pool next door. VISA, Euro/Master Card, and American Express accepted. Managed by "SMALL CHARMING HOTELS". An
excellent
address.

Na Porici 9, 110 00 Praha 1
The
Hotel
Ungelt comes with a difference: it is composed of ten splendid
apartments:
tailored made for those -tourists and businessmen alike-
Besides its supreme elegance, we selected this hotel for the little extras it brings to its clientele. There is for instance a free WiFi access: those who left their computer at home can use the PC in the reception room or, better, borrow a laptop from the friendly concierge, and bring it up to the apartment. We also liked the Ungelt for its secured parking (EUR 25) per day: leave your car there, and walk away in this super location, with all the monuments and shops at an easy reach. The rate is reasonable, and extremely attractive for long stay up to one month. A Deluxe Apartment costs about EUR 169 till 249, depending on the season. The most luxurious and largest apartment (Gothic Suite de Luxe 6) goes for EUR 239 till 319. There
is
a cozy lobby bar, and secretarial / tours and concert service by the
concierge.
UNGELT:
Stupartska 7, 110 00 Praha 1
ANTIK
(***L): A hotel
with much character, located
two blocks from the Astronomer's clock, with many reputed restaurants,
pubs, shops and everything you could wish standing right The 12 double rooms are good sized and spotlessly clean. Equipped with a comfy bathroom, toilet, telephone, Sat TV and a mini bar. They all allow for an additional bed. Guests looking for a joyful animation should ask for a street view (splendid Baroque buildings all around!); the rooms oriented to the small court yard garden are extremely quiet, making you feel like anywhere but in the heart of a capital city. In close co-operation with a reputed tour operator, the hotel Antik is a point of departure to plenty of attractive guided visits in Prague and the Czech Republic. A Double Room costs CZK 3490 – 3990. Rate for a Single is CZK 2990 – 3590. Additional bed is CZK 900. Including buffet-breakfast and WiFi Internet access. A
very
inviting hotel.

VINCI (***L): This
charming place combines a perfect location (500 m from Wenceslas
Square,
and a 2 minutes walk to the IP Pavlova metro and trams hub), with an
unbeatable
value for money. From outside, it looks like an Italian “palazzo”. The
lobby displays a fresh and trendy Contemporary but not minimalist, the Da Vinci make you feel like in a lounge. Away from the downtown hustle. Indeed a boutique hotel, where each detail has been studied to please aesthete’s eyes and traveller’s requirement, it doesn’t look like at all a “budget hotel”. The quite large 27 smoking/non smoking double rooms (some with a balcony) and 1 apartment, equipped with dark oak furniture, Sat TV, IDD telephone, safe, have all Internet access and WiFi (available in all public area). Nice bathrooms, with hairdryer and vanity. There is a laundry service, a garage nearby (surcharge is EUR 13 / CZK 390), and a round-the-clock front desk. Friendly and courteous services. The full buffet breakfast is included in the room rate which is approximately EUR 120 / CZK 3,500 for a Single, EUR 130 / CZK 3,800 for a Double, and EUR 160 / CZK 4600 for the stylish family/business Apartment. The DA VINCI has a sister hotel, the RAFFAELLO, located in the same area. With similar high comfort, quality of service and attractive rate. The kind of place we recommend with pleasure. DA

RAFFAELLO
(***L): This
classy 29 rooms and 5 apartments boutique hotel will satisfy business
and
leisure travellers alike. Located in a smart Art Nouveau building, in
the
heart of Prague (a stroll to Wenceslas Square and the main business,
shopping
and touristic areas), it displays a The spacious rooms are decorated with beautiful Italian furniture made out of sherry wood. The bathrooms are certainly among the most immaculate we have ever seen: sparkling like a jewel! Some have tub; some have shower. Or both, in the case of the great value for money, actually nice apartments: we found the duplex particularly convenient for families. Each room has Sat TV, minibar, safe, IDD telephone, and dial up Internet Access. Only the attractive rate –and the absence of room service- reflect that the Raffaello is a three star superior hotel. Prices start from CZK 3,500 / EUR 120 for a Single, till CZK 4,600 / EUR 160 for an apartment. A double costs approximately CZK 3,800 / EUR 130. Including buffet breakfast.

1806, this small charming hotel cultivates the rules of hospitality.
Flanked
by the touristy and universally known brewery "U Fleku", ideally
situated on the border of both Old and New Town, just a few
steps away
from tram 22 with destination the Prague Castle, it Totally refurbished in 2007, in a smart, minimalist though warm style, with a pleasant lobby bar and an efficient concierge, the Páv is custom-tailored for businessmen and distinctive travelers on a tight budget (rate for a double room is approximately CZK 1,500 up to CZK 3,600 only, including full buffet breakfast!). The 82 individually appointed and furnished rooms are large and clear. We liked very much the elegant design of the queen size beds, the quality of the fabrics, the flat screen sat TV, the safety box, and the complimentary WiFi in all rooms. A four star appointment in a three star hotel! Conveniently appointed bathrooms (some with a tub). Nice and quiet view from each rooms: even the courtyards are clean and well exposed to the sun. We are far away from the depressing « panoramas » on old, dirty blocks experienced too many times in Prague. Note that the Páv also offers 4 large junior suites with a terrace, and 3 rooms for disabled.
